“I've never been that career conscious.” — Rory Gallagher

In the first band I was ever in, we all had to wear a matching grey suit. I hated that.

Playing live is my natural element. It's too hard to relax in the studio because there are too many options. It's just not as exciting.

I think that I set such high standards for myself that sometimes I expect other people to live up to these standards, and it's not fair because they're not setting the same goals for themselves.

I was just fascinated by the blues.
